Reowned for their unique flavour of carrot cake, made using curry powder, sweetened chye poh / preserved radish, and deshelled shrimp.
.
This gives each plate a unique layering of taste, yet it doesn't distract from the soft moist taste of the carrot cakd itself.
.
The white version is my preference here, smoky savoury spicy eggy sweet in flavour, the notes of curry and egg amd shrimp quite distinct.
.
The black version is also well loved, smoky sweet spicy eggy savoury in flavour. Here, the curry is tamed with the dark sweet soy sauce, though you still get the taste of the egg and shrimp. I find the contrast a tad jarring.
